tawas powder deodorant
Tawas deodorant is an alternative to commercial deodorant popular in Asian countries, especially the Philippines. It is made from pure mineral salts called potassium alum or potash alum formed from natural crystals from the earth. Being a natural powder with no chemical additives, it is basically used by men and women to neutralize body odors. Tawas comes in powder or solid crystal form, and can be applied as follows.
Instructions
1. Wash underarm with soap and water. While others apply tawas directly to the underarm skin without washing, this deodorant works best in preventing body odor when the skin is clean.
2. Wipe the area lightly with a clean towel or cloth. Make sure your armpit is a little bit damp and not too dry in order for the tawas to stick.
3. If using tawas powder deodorant, pinch a small amount of powder from the container, and apply directly to your underarm. Spread evenly by moving your palm in a forward-backward motion. The excess powder will come off. Do the same thing on the other armpit.
4. If using solid tawas crystal deodorant, rub the crystal on each armpit. Allow skin to dry first before putting shirt on.
